What does Solar Wind smell like?

The top is rhubarb, raspberry, citrus notes and elemi resin, a sharp and bright start. In the heart, grapefruit, guava and woodland strawberry soften the fruit. The base settles into sandalwood, musk, honey and nectarine, leaving a woody, faintly smoky warmth behind.

Longevity and sillage both rate as good, though only a few people have rated them so far. Being unisex, it sits comfortably on either men or women. Mine Perfume Lab Shamrock and Maison Massimo Gold Signature have a close profile.
